Not only untrue, but a terribly unfair generalization. However, there are certain performers and directors that, based upon track record, are likely to draw our attention, much in the same way that storm chasers can recognize thunderstorms which are likely to produce tornadoes based on certain common patterns. Not all of those storms ultimately produce tornadoes, but a lot of them do. In my experience on this board, however, few films are discussed until either a day or so prior to their general release, or often thereafter.

You guys also seem to ignore all of the good movies out there. Say half the movies in one year are not worth seeing. Even though there would be a lot of bad movies that doesn't mean that there is nothing good that year. What happened to the other half?

Please, let's be fair. There were 400+ movies released this year, the vast majority of which were not discussed on this board. There is considerably more attention paid to the bad ones for one simple reason: That is what the forum is all about.

There have been a few instances where I have voiced disagreement over the worthiness of Razzie consideration for films mentioned on the board, and I have yet to have my stripes ripped of, my sword broken over the commander's knee and been marched unceremoniously out of the fort. There have also been instances, one just yesterday, where I have made mention of films I have enjoyed. But allow me to suggest, once again, that you consider just what the purpose of this board is, and that of the  organization that sponsors it.

Response from Head RAZZberry: As saturnwatcher pointed out, the RAZZIES are not about discussing good movies. They are in many ways (and perversely to some) about the love of certain bad movies. We are not here simply to rag, but to derive pleasure (and revenge) from the act of publicly letting those whose movies, performances and efforts let us down know that we noticed. And if you'll check our Complete List of 2006 Releases, you'll find that just under 500 films were "eligible" for RAZZIE Consideration this year. Of those, we have about 65 of them under discussion (roughly 13% of all films released). Anyone who sees a great many movies is well aware that at least 1-in-10 stinks in some way or another, so I would argue that with 65 discussed titles, we're actually not that far off the mark...

Wow-o-wow is right, you guys often heavily diss movies you have not seen that could go either way, but you automatically assume it will be bad.

The problem is that you guys seem to have no middle ground. Every movie has to be very good and if it is not it is very bad and razzie worthy. What happened to movies that are fine but forgettable? (example: the new Pink Panther)

And what is this HCE? 

Yeah...I had a laugh watching V for Vendetta too. I don't think it's as bad as a lot of other movies that came out this year, though(mainly because so many of the movies that came out this year were so frighteningly bad!), but I have to admit I couldn't believe that someone thought Portman's "English" accent was good enough to immortalise in a movie. Do these people think their films don't get shown in England?? It was almost offensive!

Also...I wonder why they had to go and change the graphic novel's story so much. I mean...they practically had a storyboard already written out for them...and they had to go and spoil it! The original story would have been so much better in every way...and probably much more successful at the box office too, so I just don't get it!

I think V for Vendetta should also be nominated:

The editing was so bad and the story itself was nothing new. This film tries so desperately to be more than it is.

Not to mention Natalie Shortman's accent!!!

to deadguy76:

After seeing the 1st trailer for the "Lake House" I was intrigued, then I watched the 2nd trailer.  I hope the whole movie isn't like this.  My girlfriend will love it,  I might not.

This is destined to be a Razzie movie: The Lake House. With two of the worst actors out there. Sandra Bullock and Canoe Keeves. Get this... it's a love story.

I personaly think it's fun, and hopefully the idiots in Hollywood will notice, and start making better movies.  once you see the movie then you can go to your mothers basement and bitch about it to your cyber buddies. Well, besides watching sneak previews and trailers, we look at different things:  Is it a remake?  Is the director any good?  Does it have snakes?    Does it use real actors?   See, anybody can guess!!  douches all of you

Here are three more to watch for, all with one important ingredient in common:

Gridiron Gang (release date currently published as September 15)

Southland Tales (release not yet published)

Spy Hunter (release not yet published)

All of these star our favorite rising action hero, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. I'm figuring that as a collective body, these three might be bad enough to yield him another Worst Actor nomination.

Opening next week: The Hills Have Eyes....its getting some positive reviews, but the guess here is the same old slasher crap...The tagline: The lucky ones die first.

I'm thinking they are referring to the audience.

line one: You'd have to ask my therapist, but be prepared for a lengthy answer.

line two: No, not every aspect. But my wife and my cat still love me.

line 3: Actually, I go to my own basement. My mother doesn't have one.

Adam Sandler may have two worthy nominations in 2006. Aside from Click, which has already been mentioned, he is starring in Good Cook, Likes Music. I haven't seen a published release date.

And if its not too early to start looking ahead to 2007, evidently Sandler  and Kevin James are set to sign on for a film titled I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry. The pair will play two firefighters who pose as a married gay couple in order to share their occupational benefits. I now pronounce it a Razzie contender!

One thing for sure, it doesn't look good.

Bloodrayne is a sure minus 10 on 10.

When A stranger calls looks like Scream 4 which all 3 sucked

Big Momma's House 2... why oh why?

As for the remake of the Pink Panther... they will destroy the originals.
